Man With Palestinian Flag Smashes Jewish Restaurant Windows in Amsterdam
A man with a Palestinian flag yelling “All-hu Akbar” was detained by police in the Netherlands on Thursday after smashing the windows of a kosher Jewish restaurant in Amsterdam.
The violent outburst came a day after President Donald Trump recognized Yerushalaytim as the capital of Israel, a decision that reversed decades of U.S. foreign policy, angered much of the Muslim world and was widely rejected by Western leaders.
The terrorist, who was wearing a black-and-white-checkered head scarf, smashed several windows of the HaCarmel restaurant before he was pushed to the ground and hand-cuffed by police, a video of the incident posted on local media websites showed.
“We are disgusted,” the Organization of Jewish Communities in The Netherlands said in a statement. The attack was “an act of revenge, meant to instil fear, and is no less than an act of terror.”
